PAME: Evolutionary membrane computing for virtual network embedding

Chunyan Yu, Qi Lian, Dong Zhang, Chunming Wu

Abstract: Highlights •Exploiting membrane computing to support a type of dual-parallel computation.•A nested paralleling is achieved via a dual-parallel mapping stage.•A mechanism to couple an inter-increment paralleling with an intra-increment one.•An architecture to solve the VNE problem via evolutionary membrane computing.•A technique that maintains long-term mapping quality via mapping diversity.
